  • Restoration of an old rusty Italian anvil, made in 1926
    I'll try my best to preserve and make it usable again, protecting from rust but not upsetting it.
    It's an antique 20 kg anvil, owned by my late grandfather and I restored it to use as an anvil ...
    Enjoy and share your thoughts

    Man, that is a crazy awesome heirloom; it looks great after restoration! (It'll be the perfect wallnut cracking surface for years to come.) Very jealous--I love Italian style anvils but they are super uncommon in my neck of the global woods.

      thank you very much for your appreciation. Yes, that's true, it's a very beautiful small anvil, and it was buyied by my grand father so long ago, so it's special for me. Thanks again for your time

    What's the deal with the hole on the horn? Pritchel hole or something? Sweet job man, he'd be proud of ya.

      You're right, it's a pritchel hole, or this is what I think. Thanks for all

      It's about 20kg and 46cm long (44lbs and 18 inches if you use the wrong measurement system 😉🤭)

      @giboron Ahah just kidding, there is no wrong one, just more common or uncommon. You can even use apples for weight and ants for length if the result is correct 👍. But I love metric one (I'm italian btw)
